Default machine shops?

hey,
I need some machine work done and am looking for a good shop. Also where is the best place to pick up some bolts? I need a lot of bolts, like exhaust man, valve cover acorn nuts, alternator bolts.... you get the point.

well right now, I need a simple throttle body port match, but i will need more things down the road. Mainly head work (port and polished, valve job, maybe decked/resurfaced...)
